What our Amazing Clients are Saying ...
Fran from Westport
“I can't even begin to thank you! Your ability to take "piles" of electronic photographs and turn them into extraordinary albums that capture the best times we've had as a family is a real gift. You were so good at helping me tell our story. I never could have done this without your help and creativity.”
Wendy from Greenwich
“Karen is the queen of organization! I had an attic filled with 70+ photo albums, scrapbooks, birth announcements, report cards, art projects and sports trophies, diplomas, and letters. Karen methodically helped me cull through the clutter and curate my mess into coveted collections, streamlined, sorted, and meticulously labeled. Throughout the process, she remained calm and focused, always conscious of where to nudge me and when to hold back. Her well-honed system, on-the-fly flexibility, and above all, her sensitivity made the entire experience seamless.”
Barbara from New Canaan
“Karen is brilliant and a wonder at what she does. I have worked on two projects with her. The first was a collection of old family photos. She designed a beautiful book and created an organized history. The second was making sense of five decades of print photos! It is something I always intended to do but never found the time. I love it all!”
Maureen from Fairfield
"I would highly recommend Karen for any photo organizing needs. I had 20 years worth of print and digital photos scattered on various devices, with a goal to combine all onto my iMac. Karen tackled my project with ease! Album creations were the next phase and WOW, to say I love and cherish them is an understatement! Karen's skilled artistic eye combined with her organizational skills work to create beautiful photo albums. Looking forward to the next album project with Karen!
Beverly from Weston
“Our pictures were a mess ... over ten years of our lives in boxes and bins. Karen took over as our CEO. She came in with goals, vision and a plan for our future photos. She turned our chaos into family albums proudly displayed in our home. "

“I would highly recommend Karen Herman to turn random photos into true family heirlooms. She gives a very artistic presentation as well. You will be creating a keepsake for generations. Karen is very personable and easy to work with as she guides you through the process.”
Karen from Fairfield
“Karen was a pleasure to work with. She made the process of scanning and naming my family pictures extremely easy. She is super organized and kept me up to date at every step.”
Debby from Weston
"After years of not knowing how to preserve old delicate photographs that I had inherited, Karen provided an amazing solution. She organized them into archival storage sleeves, and digitized them using her white glove service. Now both my sister and I can enjoy the family photos and most importantly, they are preserved for future generations.”
Micki from Weston
“I absolutely and without hesitation recommend Karen! As the name of her business reflects, she is ORGANIZED! This is a gift that she uses as she helps people take scattered images from their lives and coordinate and ORGANIZE them into a beautiful, tasteful, finished product. She has a terrific vision for detail, color, layout and the important pieces to highlight. I appreciated that Karen gave steady, gentle reminders and an eye towards the finished goal.”
Alison from Darien
"I could never do this without you!!!'
Susan from Weston
“My favorite photos have been on my computer for years, but I didn’t know how to get them off my laptop to print them. Karen made it very simple to understand, and I am thrilled to be able to do this on my own! She is awesome!!! Next Karen created a GORGEOUS album for my son's wedding. I am so happy YOU are the one who helped me!"
Holly, Photo Organizer Colleague
“Karen is amazing to work with. She is conscientious, caring, and her many years of experience shines through in how she approaches the important work of preserving precious memories.”
Abbie from Greenwich
I gave Karen a mess of 18 years worth of photos thrown into bins. In return she presented me with a streamlined collection of my photos, organized and labeled in archival storage boxes, and the same pictures scanned at top quality, My question to myself before was "do I really need Karen to do this for me or should I just do it myself?” Who was I kidding? Worth every dollar, couldn’t be happier!”
Ellyn from Weston
"My children could not stop looking at their albums at dinner that night, and over each other's shoulders at their siblings albums, reminiscing about 'that time in the picture when... It brought such a big smile to both mine and my husband's faces to watch that and know they would have these to look at and share with their children for many years to come. Karen made it so easy for me too."
Karen from Wilton
“I would recommend you in a heartbeat. Rudi and I LOVE our album. It will give us many happy memories and can’t wait to share it with our kids. We’re so happy we made the album and working with you made it all so easy.”
Lizzy from Norwalk (client's 12 year old daughter)
“Best Christmas present EVER!!!!”
“Working with Karen was a dream. She transformed old bins of loose photos/decades of snapshots into an organized timeline of family history. She was incredibly thoughtful and very communicative, providing updates along the way, all while being kind and realistic about the project's timeline. She, in essence, did the dirty work, while my father and I got to take the fun trip down memory lane.”
Debbie and her Dad from Wilton

"When my twins were 7 I said I would organize all our photos, print and digital. Each year I made the same New Year's resolution. But, 8 years later the same boxes are staring me in the face! I am finally turned to Karen for help and I'm so happy. Working with Karen has been a pleasure, easy, and no pressure. She's the perfect partner for a monumental task like this. Thanks Karen!”

Sarah from Darien
"We had accumulated literally thousands of photos that sat in ever growing disorganized piles in envelopes and boxes.

Ellen from Westport
"My son’s Bar Mitzvah was two years ago and I did not know where to start as far as making a album. Karen came to the rescue. She painstakingly went through over 600 photos and created a beautiful arrangement completely tailored to my personal taste. I don’t know how she did it, but she included all of our friends and family as well as captured the highlights of the service and the party. I highly recommend her services.”
Denise from Weston
“One of the best things I’ve ever done!!!”
Jane from Darien
“You are amazing, You made a dream come true for me. For 14 years I have admired my father-in-law’s cards and didn’t have the organization or YOU to help me . I think we found the way to keep my in-law's spirit alive in the beautiful books. I have no word but THANK YOU for ever and ever!”

"We could have never done this project without Karen! Two years of newspaper clippings from The Little League World Series were arranged into this beautifully designed book telling the story of our son's amazing baseball journey! Karen was very professional, easy to work with and very patient with two very indecisive clients! The final product is amazing!"
